Annoyingly enough, having an issue with the download. It wants me to install the media fire tool bar in order to download, but when I try installing it, I am told that I need to uninstall the previous version of the ask tool bar. I don't have the ask toolbar installed...

If a person submitted more than one track, it was put at the end of the album. The order of the album is semi-random, semi-chosen. The chosen part are what songs are around a song, the random part is where those songs are on the album.

The goal was variety and decent transitions. I am going more for an album type feel, so there are some crossfades and overlaps, but they aren't poorly executed. I feel as though the volume leveling is pretty decent, but it is important to realize that it can only be so good with

If there is any disagreement about the order, crossfades, or anything else, please let me know. I'll be uploading the album today, so it might make sense to comment upon hearing it.

FAQ

Q: Is it really free?A: Yes.

Q: You said it was free but it is asking me for a price.A: Try entering in "0" for a price. If that doesn't work we likely ran out of download credits.

Q: If I donate money where will it go?A: It could go one of two places. The first being to download credits. Bandcamp gives you 200 download credits each month. Download credits allows you to download the album or a song in whatever format you want for a credit per song. When the album releases, the credits get eaten up pretty quickly due to how many songs are on the album. The credit package is as follows:

After the amount of traffic slows down to a point where nobody is really downloading anymore, the rest of the money will go towards a charity. The charity in particular will depend upon a vote granted there is a decent amount of money. If there is only 30 cents left, voting or donating wouldn't make much sense for obvious reasons.

Q: How was the track order decided?A: If a person submitted more than one track, it was put at the end of the album. The order of the album is semi-random, semi-chosen. The chosen part are what songs are around a song, the random part is where those songs are on the album.
